Title: Personal Message ??( Loveseeker)
Post by: takestock on September 18, 2008, 02:38

Yesterday on a certain site ( fairly well known photo selling agency) I received a personal message form a lady who wanted to "love and be loved" with email address listed for reply.

I thought it a bit odd and unexpected.
How do you feel about this? I would have thought that this would be not encouraged on such sites.

 ;D Well, lady wants to be loved... There are no restrictions for that kind of p.m. in any agency. It's maybe unusual, but not forbidden. And about an offer... you decide your self  ;D

So would I. It is absolutely disgusting to send messages like that in any photo-site.

Maybe her dad died and left her $12,000,000 and she needs your help, to get it out of her country  :D

i really don't think this is a big deal.  Anyone can create an account on any site and send spam .. it is simply spam... just report the message to the admin.
